A woman. What a surprise. Generally immune from allegations of sexual misconduct.

She has also said she will run in 2020 and not be just a “placeholder”.

Like clockwork.
I knew he would not actually resign unless Moore lost.

Franken has not actually resigned yet.
Looks like Governor Dayton and Lieutenant Governor Smith are trying to push him along....

POLITICO Democrats cling to the impossible: Winning the Senate in 2018 Capturing the majority would mean prevailing in deep-red terrain like Texas or Tennessee.

I guess I missed Franken actually resigning, as opposed to stating that he would resign in the coming weeks.

With the announcement of a female replacement, Franken is as good as gone.
On the plus side, at least the replacement is not Keith Ellison. Of course the only way that would happen in the current environment is if Keith transitioned to Kendra.

Dayton-Hudson is assuming that Franken will actually resign as he promised. Perhaps this is a strategy to pressure Franken.
Tina Smith is former VP of Planned Parenthood of Minnesota, operator of a number of abortion clinics.
http://www.startribune.com/planned-parenthood-grows-stronger-in-minnesota-amid-pressure/363022001/
“”While Minnesota abortions overall have declined by 30 percent since 2000, those performed by Planned Parenthood have increased, according to records reviewed by the Star Tribune. While competing clinics have closed, Planned Parenthood has opened a $16 million headquarters in St. Paul and tripled its endowment to $30 million...
The quiet growth has made Planned Parenthood a dominant provider in the state: It performed 49 percent of elective abortions in Minnesota last year, compared to 17 percent in 2000.””

And what makes you think Franken will resign now? Because he’ll be `shunned’ by his Democrat colleagues if he doesn’t? He’s already known as the Jerk of the Senate and is also known for making physical threats. I don’t believe even Chuckie Schumer wants to confront him.
Outside of Congress, Franken has no marketable skills and will hang on to his Senate seat with his teeth.

So when does this NARAL worker get sworn in?
Before or after Alabama certifies the Jones win?
This game is still Chess not checkers.

“A woman. What a surprise. Generally immune from allegations of sexual misconduct. “
~~~~~~~~~~~~
It wasn’t a surprise to Franken - this is what he said in his “resignation” speech:
“The Minnesotans deserve a senator who can focus with all HER energy on addressing the challenges they face every day.”
